We&rsquo;re looking at how wildlife use a corridor, preferences for corridors, and their adaptability to industrial corridors.    So with that we&rsquo;re going to use that information to enhance our reclaimed landscape.  <\/em> <\/p>\n<p> The corridor study will focus on the movements of many species, including moose, deer, wolves and fox.  And as Ron Lewko explains, it involves plenty of collaboration.    <\/p>\n<p><strong> RON LEWKO: <\/strong><em>So right now we are with the Canadian Oil Sands Network of Research and Development or CONRAD.   And that is with our six other industry partners.  And we&rsquo;re doing it through university based research. <\/em>     <\/p>\n<p> The wildlife corridor study will be conducted in two phases over five years, but Ron Lewko expects findings will be implemented as they become available. <\/p>\n<p><em> Thanks today to <strong>Syncrude Canada. <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p> <em><strong>Learn more at InnovationAnthology.com  <\/strong><\/em> <\/p>\n<p> <strong>I&#8217;M CHERYL CROUCHER <\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Guest<\/h2>\n<h3> , <\/h3>\n<h4>, , , , <\/h4>\n<h2>Sponsor<\/h2>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/www.syncrude.com\">Syncrude<\/a><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/innovationanthology.com\/uploads\/SyncrudeLogo.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Program Date:<\/strong>\u00a02009-06-04<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When <strong>Syncrude<\/strong> is finished mining oil sands from a particular pit, work begins on <strong>reclaiming the land<\/strong> to its natural state.
